Saturday July 24

Drive about two hours to Lancaster County, PA.

Check into the Greystone Manor B&B in Bird-in-Hand, where we have reserved adjoining double and single rooms with air conditioning.

Take a tour of Amish farm country by horse and buggy, visiting working farms on back roads where cars are not permitted. Then tour one house and farm in close-up detail. Inflict upon our poor, unsuspecting Spanish student the unique American cultural experience of the "corn maze."

Go back to the B&B to swim and change before dinner.

Eat Pennsylvania Dutch food.

Lounge about in the B&B for a quiet evening, possibly to include hot tubbing, games, reading, watching the sunset. Alternatively, try to inveigle fellow travelers into playing miniature golf.

Sunday July 25

Eat a big, indulgent German-American breakfast.

Visit the Lancaster County Quilt and Textile Museum.

Possibly wind up Sunday by renting kayaks and paddling around the Susquehanna. Alternatively, poke around in shops for a while and then head home.

Should provide an interesting contrast to the New York trip.

And so quintessentially American, but in a way your visitor probably never thought of.

Soudsn like fun, too. I am envious.
